The Phoenix of Poetry – the Canterbury Poets’ Spring 2011 Readings Series

Like a phoenix from the ashes, the CPC Readings Series has shaken off the demise of two venues to return in a burst of glorious spring colour. A paltry 300 metres south of the beloved ex-site of the MCB, the readings have relocated to “new big fat comfortable venue” is the CPIT Students Association (CPSA) Hall, at 5 Madras Street. (It’s the bright yellow building just to the right of the main entrance – you can’t miss it.) There is a cafe onsite, and patrons can use the main pay-and-display carpark at CPIT.

And once again, the guest poets for the final evening will be … the winners of the Open Mic from the previous 8 weeks. Hooray! (Who knows – maybe I’ll give “Fare” its first public airing …)

Incidentally, if you would like to be put on the mailing list for announcements from the Canterbury Poets’ Collective, send an email to: joyces at clear dot net dot nz (using the usual symbols in place of the words ‘at’ and ‘dot’, and closing up the spaces in the normal manner – boo to zombies!)
